14th Choral Concert Commemorates VE Day
Tuesday evening the Wyandotte
Choral Society presented their 14th
Annual Spring Concert directed by
H. Lyle Lyon with Emily Lyon as
accompanist.
According to their custom, they
introduced the program with F. J.
Huntle’s arrangement of the Bach*
Gounod “Ave Maria.” Following
this the club, in commemoration of
V-E Day, sang “A Song of Peace.”
Florence Frostlc took the beautful
poem of Lloyd Stone and using the
hymn-like melody from “Finlandia”
by Jean Sibelius, arranged it for
the club.. Mr. Stone is a professor
at the Michigan College of Mines.
In the first two songs, “Low
Breathing Winds" of Coleridge Tay
lor and “Think On Me” by Alicia
Ann Scott, the women were a bit
cold and slow as though they were
not yet warmed up, but when they

The Wyandotte Branch of the
American Association of University
Women held a meeting in the Club
rooms of the City Hall, the evening
of May Bth, at 6:30 P. M. A pot luck
dinner was enjoyed by the members,
after which Mrs. Frederick Bufe
directed the group singing.
As this was the last meeting of
the year, Eunice Brake, president,
called on the various standing com
mittee chairman for their annual re

chairman, reported that a member
ship of 20 for the past year; Amy

book sale held November 17th and
18th were $101.37. This made possible
a one dollar per member contri

chairman, reported that she had
endorsed either by letter or wire 11
bills in Congress and 5 for the
State Legislature; Jane Olive Hart

got to “The Island.” a song by
Sergei Rachmaninoff, they bright
ened up and sang It well. “Romany
Life” by Victor Herber lacked spar
kle. This song depends almost en
tirely on the solo voice. The solo
was sung by Ruth Liddle who did
a good job —a really remarkable
performance for she was handi
capped by a very severe attack of
sinus trouble. We hope the Choral
Society will repeat this number on
some future program with Mrs. Lid
dle doing the solo, for it just suits
her voice.
n the second group, “The High
land Lad” was well sung except for
a slight overshadowing of the 2nd
contralto voices. The beautiful and
unusual song of C. V. Stanford, “The
Blue Bird” was one of their finest
bits of the evening. The finest
ensemble of the evening was in
The Junior Choral Society under
the very able direction* of Miss
Eleanor Bennlnk will present its
Sixth Annual Spring Concert on
Friday, May 18, 1945, at 8:15 p. xn.
Miss Leola Myrl Hoke, pianist,
will be the guest artist for the
evening. She is a graduate of
Blacks tone Girls’ School, West Vlr
gnia, where she received a diploma
In music with a Major in Plano.
Miss Hoke has a Bachelor of Arts
Degree from Concord College, and
was listed in “Who’s Who in Colleges
and Universities ” Miss Hoke also
studied music with Percy Grainger
at the Interlochen, Michigan, Na
tional Music Camp.
The club will also present Betty
and Margo MacLellan in several
Scottish dances. These two Wyan
dotte girls have become very profi
cient in performing the dances of
their parents’ native land. Their
father, Mr. Donald MacLellan, who
accompanies their dances on the
bagpipes, is a member of Ford’s Bag
pipe Band.
We wish to extend to you a very
cordial invitation to attend this
concert at the Roosevelt High School
Auditorium.

“Wynken, Blynken and Nod” by
Ethelbert Nevin. In this Mrs. Lyon
at the piano was ably assisted by
Margaret Mary Danz. The accom
paniment for two pianos or four
hands is most intriguing and they
certainly played it. The solo line
was sung by Margaret Domal and
seemed as though it had been made
to order for her. And the club. I
think, did their best work in this
number. Their attacks were fine
and never once did they cover up
the solo line.
In the final group “Bird Songs
at Eventide” by Eric Coates was
wel ldone. This song does not seem
to pay for all the elabor put in it.
I imagine the club put in more real
hard work on “Begin the Beguine”
than any other song on the pro
gram. When we heard they were
going to sing this song we won
dered for unless the rhythm is
caught and held, the song is killed—
but they did it. More power to
them. “The Omnipotence” was
taken at just the light tempo and
was well worked out all the way
through although the lovely melody
in the lowest voices was almost lost
at times due to the enthusiasm of
the higher voices.
The assisting artists, Gerre Wood,

a senior at Mary grove College, and
Margaret Mary Danz, a resident of
Wyandotte and member of the
Choral Society, presented two groups
of two piano numbers. In the first
group they wefe not too happy In
“The Allegro” from the “Sonata
in C Major” by Bach and in “Jesu
Joy of Man’s Desiring” by Bach,
they were a bit too heavy on the
down beat which made it seem
mechanical. In “Danse Macabre"
of Saint-Saens they found them
selves and gave a fine rendition of
the number, n theelr second group,
which was light in character, “Pou
pee Valsante” by Poldini, “Night
and Day” and “Tea for Two,” they
played right into the hearts of the
people. These two young ladies will
go far in the musical world.
Mr. Lyon, as usual, held the club
well in hand. They responded to
his direction beautifully and of
course Mrs. Lyon was right with
him in the accompaniments. The
accompanimtnts would have been
more enjoyable, I think, had the
piano been placed on the left of
the stage as Tuesday night the bass
was too strong and the treble was
lost at times due to the position of
the piano.
